How can I make my ipad delete emails as I delete them on my laptop

I usually look at my emails at home, in the office, or while traveling but only on one device.  Is there a way that I can set my IPAD so that when I delete an email from my laptop, that it will simultaneously delete from my IPAD?

Hi lynnfromgrandy,
Whether you can keep your email accounts synchronized across devices depends on what type of email account you have. IMAP, for instance, is a mail account that keeps all messages and their locations on the mail server. Thus any device will automatically update as long as it is connected to the Internet. Apple's iCloud mail is an example of this.
POP accounts, on the other hand, do not do this, and thus email received and deleted on one device may be received again by another device and have to be deleted from there.
Contact your mail service provider to find out which type of email account you have.
See this article for reference -
Mail settings you might need from your email provider - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

    Do you know that there is an iPad user guide located in the bookmarks of the Safari Browser? It might come in handy for you.
    And here is another one.

    And you can also download the free iPad user guide book in the free iBooks app on the iPad!

  • I have a e printer and thee printer is on the same wifi net work as the iPad, when I select print from the iPad the response is no printers. I can successfully email from my iPad to the printer. How can I make my iPad recognize the printer?

    I have an e printer and the printer is on the same network as the iPad. When I attempt to print from the iPad I get a message no printers available. How can I get my iPad to recognize the e printer?

    This printer has worked for me with out fail at my house.  I am traveling in an RV and am at the mercy of the RV Wifi.  I do not have access to the router.  The printer has been recycled a number of times as well as the Ipad.  The printer is set up and has access to the wifi.  It seems to me that the Ipad and Iphone are not recognizing the connection with the e printer.  I was hoping there was some adjustment that could be made to the Ipad and Iphone.  I can email to the printer from both gadgets.  I will try to recycle the devices again.

  • How can I make my ipad work again please help

    Hi I bought my iPad last year and it's been working fine. Today I was just going through the settings and it said there was a software update for IOS7 so I agreed to have it done, but I had no idea it was going to take so long (would be nice if they gave a heads up). I had to use my ipad for timely purposes so after a couple of minutes and what looked like only 2% complete, I tried to stop it and the only way was to turn off the device (no option to pause or stop!).
    Now when I turned it back on it says I have to sync it to iTunes and won't go to any other screen. I synced it to iTunes (first time since I purchased it and my Cloud's memory has been full for months so I have no backup whatsoever of anything on my ipad - pictures, email etc. When I sync it up to iTunes it says that it detects a systems update in progress and I cannot continue until it is completed, would i like to continue. I thought I guess that's my only option so I said ok, but unlike when I did it wirelessly unsynced to iTunes earlier, now it is giving a warning that it will return my iPad to factory settings and erase anything I have on it when it completes installing the software!! No thank you!!!! Wish I had that warning the first time around, I have a year's worth of information stored on there that I do not want deleted.
    Somebody please help, how can I get my iPad back to how it was before and stop this update nonsense ASAP??? What a way to ruin my Sunday Please help anybody who can.... Thank you. (and I don't see an option to back it up it just goes to the page to update the device in order to do anything else). Surely there must be a way!! Anybody??

    From your description it seems that you have to upgrade to iOS 7 now.
    No one can say what state your iPad is in since you interrupted a very critical process!
    It is perfectly normal that your iPad's contents are erased during the upgrade process.
    All your data will be restored afterwards, if, and only if you have a recent backup of your iPad!
    To restore your backup from iCloud follow these instructions:

  • How can I make a custom domain email for my client?

    I have an Adobe Muse subscription, with hosting through Adobe, and the Domain name is also with Adobe. How can I make an email for a particular domain for my client so that it will use a "company email" (even if it just redirects to say a gmail or yahoo that is fine) to read "[email protected]?

    Hello,
    As I can see you have a WebBasic Creative Cloud site, I would suggest you to use GoogleApps for your e-mail services.
    Please have a look at the article which would help you achieve this : http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/setting-google-apps-email-business.html
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I make "mail" my default email app?

    When I click on an email address from Cobook or on a web page viewed in Safari, the chrome app opens to a gmail account that I rarely use. How can I make my regular Mail app the default?
    Thanks.

    Open Mail -> Preferences. Under the General tab there should be an option to select the default Mail app.

    How can I make my ipadresume connecting my facetime calls?

    You may not be able to. There seems to have been an issue with facetime over the weekend, and going by the number of people having issues It's likely that it's something Apple needs to fix.

    If this is a passcode issue:
    If You Are Locked Out, Have Forgotten Your Passcode, or Just Need to Restore Your Device
    1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
    4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
    5. How to Recover Forgotten iPhone Restrictions Passcode | The iPhone and iPad
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the
              Back Up option. If you have just backed up the device, it is not necessary
              to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore or have forgotten your restrictions passcode, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

  • How can I change my iPad iTunes email address to match my mac pro iTunes email address.

    My iPad iTunes email address is different from my Mac pro iTunes email address.  Tried changing my iPad meal address to match my Mac pro and said I could not.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are using different Apple IDs for each device, this implies that you have different accounts on each. Unfortunately you cannot merge accounts or transfer content between them.
    If all you wish to do is to use the account that you use on your MacBook Pro for your iPad, then you need to delete or sign out of your iTunes & app stores App on your iPad and then login again with your other account details. Obviously you will then no longer be able to use the purchases you have made from the account you have logged out of.

  • I was on the airplane during which my keyboard pressed wrong passcode, I guess. I found my iPad was diabled to connet to iTunes. I don't have any access to my pc. How can I make my iPad abled?

    Please help me make my iPad abled without access to iTunes. I have iphone with me. Is it possible to resolve diabled iPad?

    You always want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings ..... but you can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
    Instructions can be found here.

    Make sure that you pay attention to the section at the very of the article that talks about having never synced your iPad with iTunes. You may need have to restore the iPad that way.
